I lead the
Intelligent
Information Access Lab. I am also affiliated
with the Data
Management Group, Center
for Comprehensive Informatics, Linguistics, and the Web
Science Initiative @ Georgia Institute of Technology.
We work on information
retrieval
and
text and data mining, developing techniques for
mining user
behavior and interactions in
web search and
online
social
networks, large-scale content analysis and information extraction,
and on applications of these techniques to medical
informatics.

Agichtein is an Assistant Professor in the Mathematics and Computer
Science Department at Emory University, where he directs the
Intelligent Information Access Laboratory. Previously, Eugene was a Postdoctoral Researcher in the Text
Mining, Search, and Navigation group at Microsoft Research, working on text and web mining and
user behavior analysis for improving web search.
He received a Ph.D. in Computer Science from Columbia University
in 2005, and a B.S. in Engineering from The
Cooper Union in 1998. Eugene
is a recipient of the “Best Student Paper” award at the ICDE 2003
conference, the “Best Paper Award” at the SIGMOD 2006 conference, 2007
"Beyond Search" Award from Microsoft Research, and 2009 HP Labs Open
Innovation Award. Eugene's research
interests are in information retrieval, with emphasis on user behavior
modeling, collaboratively-generated content, and medical informatics. |
